Waymo robotaxis freeze during blackout
šØ Our Report
Alphabet-owned Waymo temporarily suspended its driverless taxi service in San Francisco on Saturday after a citywide power outage left several vehicles stalled and blocking intersections. The company restored operations Sunday once power returned to affected areas.
š Key Points
Videos on social media showed multiple Waymo robotaxis frozen in traffic, forcing human drivers to navigate around them as inactive stoplights worsened congestion.
The outage impacted roughly 130,000 Pacific Gas & Electric customers, halting traffic signals and transit systems across the city, according to Waymoās spokesperson.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk posted that āTesla Robotaxis were unaffectedā, highlighting the companiesā differing navigation systems: Tesla relies on cameras and AI, while Waymo depends on detailed pre-mapped data.
š Relevance
The incident exposes a key vulnerability in map-dependent autonomous systems during infrastructure failures. For regulators and operators, it reinforces the need for resilient fallback protocols and real-time adaptability in self-driving fleets as cities weigh large-scale deployment of autonomous vehicles.

Case Study
How AI helped a startup launch for under $5K
Entrepreneur Caleb Musser built BoxMow, a rideshare-style waste disposal platform, serving Charlotte and Charleston with next-day pickup services.
Traditional waste disposal required technical expertise and significant capital investment. This created barriers for non-technical founders entering the market.
Musser used no-code and low-code AI tools to build the website, including photo analysis for automated quoting, for less than $5,000.
The result so far: roughly 50 pickups completed with around 20 drivers across two markets, proving AI democratizes startup creation.
AI News Story
OpenAI lets users set ChatGPT tone
OpenAI has introduced a Personalization menu that lets users adjust ChatGPTās warmth, enthusiasm, and emoji use, offering āMore,ā āLess,ā or āDefaultā settings for each.
The update expands on Novemberās tone presets (Professional, Candid, Quirky) and followed user feedback that earlier versions felt either too flattering or too cold. It marks OpenAIās latest step toward giving users finer control over chatbot personality and communication style.
Critics argue that tone manipulation could reinforce addictive behavior or bias user perception. Supporters see it as a move toward safer, more transparent AI-human interaction that adapts to individual preferences.

AI News Story
Google delays Assistant-to-Gemini transition
Google pushed back its plan to replace Assistant with Gemini on Android devices, extending the timeline into 2026. The company cited the need for "a seamless transition" after originally targeting completion by end of 2025.
The delay affects Android devices. Gemini has already launched on Wear OS watches, Android Auto, and Nest devices. Mobile integration presents more complex engineering challenges.
Google added core assistant functions to Gemini this year, including calls, timers, and messaging, while letting users opt out of AI training. The transition represents the end of Google Assistant as Android's primary voice interface.
